Thanks for asking.It seems that during the night and this morning it was already reasonably approaching the values of the capillary, differences around 20. It is not perfect but usable.We will see if it improves with the days.
The next sensor I will do as I have read that other people do: put it 24 h before activating it.

No signature configured, update it from user's profile.

Don't worry about putting it hours before.It is important above all that at the time of calibration it is done with stable blood glucose, without active insulin or having eaten HC and during those 60 minutes to move as little as possible.So I always put on the sensor.I put a new one last night and I just gave 162 on the sensor and 159 on the capillary ...

However, keep in mind that if the blood glucose is stable, the values are much more exact ... but if it is going up or down, as the sensor collects the values of the interstitial liquid, it has been about 10 minutes late;That is why if the blood glucose is varying the values are more disparate.
I usually have a few difference between capillary and sensor, but it is true that they begin to be much more exact at 2 or 3 days ..

I get the exact values between capillary and free in glycemia as soon as I got up.Then between 5 and 10 difference.
This one that I have now between 50 and 80 nails it.From 90 to 140 this 10 mg/dl below and above 150 brand +/- 25mg/dl.
But the fundamental thing is to activate it and be very relaxed without moving.I active at midnight, at dawn and still sleeping.

Sorry, I have found another thread in the forum (the one dedicated exclusively to Freestyle) where these days there is precisely this.And yes, it seems that there are many freestyle users affected by delays and cancellations of shipments lately ...
